Anna Liu runs Tonkin Liu with Mike Tonkin. The practice approaches each new project as a blank canvas and seeks solutions that are specific to person, place and time. Its portfolio includes a range of private projects, complemented by competition work at the civic scale. Completed projects in Europe and East Asia have been published around the world and received a number of awards.
